Former General Manager Ron Johnson has been appointed Group Commercial Director by Wolverhampton-based Scaffolding & Construction Products (SCP).

The UK’s leading supplier of Acrow props and general construction products has a £20million turnover, and sees the move as pivotal to their continued success. With more than 30 years experience in the construction sector, the company see him as the perfect choice for overseeing sales, marketing, research and development within their overall organisation.

Ron will report directly to the Group Managing Director, Dale R Dale, who is delighted to have him on board. “Ron is a respected professional in the sectors that we operate in and we’re delighted that he’s joined our senior management team,” he said. “

“A key part of our future plans is to develop and expand our product range and help our customers improve performance both locally and in the export market. Ron will certainly help with this.”

SCP is a member of the MSUK Group, including leading construction brands used widely in scaffolding, demolition, formwork, falsework and events sectors.

Mr Johnson added: “Dale has created a powerful group with one of the strongest ranges of specialist products in the construction and events industry, both here in the UK and overseas. It’s a privilege to become a member of the senior team at SCP and MSUK and together we’re totally committed to delivering quality products that create safe and productive sites across the country.”

MSUK Group is a major manufacturer and distributor of more than 1,000 products covering access and formwork equipment, scaffolding, groundworks and events.  The Group acquired SCP in 2017 and in addition to the world famous Acrow Prop, it is the sole approved manufacturer of the innovative Klawz scaffold fitting, ScottiClip, Tamer and Safelinx scaffold board retaining systems.
